The wedding-outfit shop on Cross Street

Need something for a wedding this summer? Skip the chain stores and head to Nelly. The occasion-wear rail is the reason to come, not the everyday basics stacked alongside gifts and accessories near the front.

Denise runs the floor herself and styles customers on the spot, so tell her the venue and she'll pull options you wouldn't have picked. The shop is small and bright, tucked among the pubs and takeaways of the Latin Quarter, and it's open Sunday afternoons too.

Good to know

• Open seven days, including Sunday afternoons, which is rare for an independent in the Latin Quarter.
• Denise and the team do occasion-wear styling in store, worth ringing ahead if you're shopping for a wedding.
